I'm completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death. - George Carlin
I'm with Supa on this one. I have a buddy that just got a R6 and they were already installed when he got the bike. You can BARELY see them at NIGHT, and during the day they are just plain invisable unless you are right next to him looking very hard.

I'm just trying to figure out a not-ugly way to get rid of my stock gigantuous signals and replace them with clears... will still looking clean and being "reasonably safe".

LEDs are surprisingly bright.
Those if designed correctly are going to be as bright in daylight as your stock ones.
Note: " if designed correctly "
Lou does your friend have the same item? SUPALEDs work best with cap-lock off..
Not sure what brand they are, they were installed when he bought the bike used.
You could check at Superbrightleds.com
They have a great selection, and awsome service. Also, there are some small flushmounts you can buy through a company like dennis kirk, made buy Lockhart Philips. That is what I am getting for my rear.

THATS TRUE THERES A DIFF IN THE KIND OF LEDS YOU USE...THOSES LOOK LIKE THE CRAPPY 1s HOWEVER, THE 1s USED ON THE SUVs SIDE MORRORS (RED ARROWS) ARE THE GOOD 1s. YOU MAY WANT TO BUY A SET OF THOSE OT THE FLUSH MOUNTS AND STICK EM ON THE L/R REAR TAIL FAIRINGS...IN A MONTH , WHEN MY KAT IS THE KOTM, YOULL SEE WHAT I MEAN..LOL
I think i'm going to check with some local riders and dealers to see what theirs look like before i make any decisions.
I like the totally clear look which is why i'm leaning towards LED lighting.
I was going to get the Clear Alternatives LED Tailing (98-02 style) and fashion some sort of LED turn signals for the rear.
If the LEDs aren't as visible (read... not as safe) as the clear lens/amber bulb combo would be... then i'll get the Clear Alternatives Tailight (Red Insert) and some Mini Cat Eye Short Stalk signals (Clear/Black/AmberBulbs). It won't be as clear/clean looking on my black bike... but i'll have less chance of a cager deciding to run over me too.
